* Remove the casts to vaddr_t from the round_page() and trunc_page() macros to
make them type-generic, which is necessary i.e. to operate on file offsets
without truncating them.
* In due course, cast pointer arguments to these macros to an appropriate
integral type (paddr_t, vaddr_t).
Originally done by Chuck Silvers, updated by myself.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
in vfs_detach(). vfs_done may free global filesystem's resources,
typically those allocated in respective filesystem's init function.
Needed so those filesystems which went in via LKM have a chance to
clean after themselves before unloading. This fixes random panics
when LKM for filesystem using pools was loaded and unloaded several
times.
For each leaf filesystem, add appropriate vfs_done routine.
metadata. If you do call it, there's actually a fair chance that it
will panic because its metadata dependencies were not cleared in
the VOP_FSYNC above (with FSYNC_DATAONLY).
mode and ownership bits are flushed to disk before the vnode is
reclaimed.
The check, introduced in the softdep merge, assumes that if no blocks
are dirty, no file data *or metadata* needs to be flushed to disk. This
is true of ffs, but is not true of lfs, and may not be true of other
filesystems.
Tested by myself and Bill Squier <groo@cs.stevens-tech.edu>.
disk space rather than doing it in timeout handler. This fixes long
standing bug that accounting file can't be put on NFS file system (so,
e.g, we couldn't turn on accounting on diskless system).
between protocol handlers.
ipsec socket pointers, ipsec decryption/auth information, tunnel
decapsulation information are in my mind - there can be several other usage.
at this moment, we use this for ipsec socket pointer passing. this will
avoid reuse of m->m_pkthdr.rcvif in ipsec code.
due to the change, MHLEN will be decreased by sizeof(void *) - for example,
for i386, MHLEN was 100 bytes, but is now 96 bytes.
we may want to increase MSIZE from 128 to 256 for some of our architectures.
take caution if you use it for keeping some data item for long period
of time - use extra caution on M_PREPEND() or m_adj(), as they may result
in loss of m->m_pkthdr.aux pointer (and mbuf leak).
this will bump kernel version.
(as discussed in tech-net, tested in kame tree)
the change constitutes binary compatibility issue hen sizeof(long) !=4.
there's no way to be backward compatible, and only guys affected
are IPv6 userland tools.

amount of physical memory, divide it by 4, and then allow machine
dependent code to place upper and lower bounds on the size. Export
the computed value to userspace via the new "vm.nkmempages" sysctl.
NKMEMCLUSTERS is now deprecated and will generate an error if you
attempt to use it. The new option, should you choose to use it,
is called NKMEMPAGES, and two new options NKMEMPAGES_MIN and
NKMEMPAGES_MAX allow the user to configure the bounds in the kernel
config file.
